Getting ready for Monday Night Debate. I've asked Faith Hill to perform a song.

I love London. I'm guessing I would love it even more if I were there for today's Patriots game.

That being said, we all know that the Pats are going to crush the winless Bucs, and that the real big game this week will be the Monday Night Candidate's Debate (Are you ready for some healthcare!?).

So here is what we know about tomorrow:

1) The Candidates will actually be sparring twice.  They will meet in the morning in front of the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce at the Westin Boston Waterfront, in a forum I am told will be recorded and rebroadcast by C-SPAN.

2) They will then meet again at the John F. Kennedy Library for a televised debate. Here are the details, courtesy of Capuano's website:

The Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate will sponsor a debate for the Democratic candidates seeking to represent Massachusetts in the U.S. Senate.  Hosted by the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library & Museum, the debate will feature all four Democratic candidates. Peter Meade, President and CEO of the Institute, will serve as moderator for the debate.
The debate will air live on Greater Boston stations 2, 4, 5, 7 and NECN on Monday, October 26, from 7:00-8:00 p.m. For other stations in Massachusetts, please check your local listings.
3) Here's what I have been able to find on campaign plans:

-Capuano will be holding a rally before the debate at the JFK Library from 5-7 p.m. Find more information here.

-Coakley supporters will be holding debate watch parties across the state.  Check out the list of parties here.

Couldn't find anything on Khazei or Pagliuca plans - in fact, neither one even has the debate on their event calendars.

4) I thought I would try to have a live chat during the debate, so readers can ask questions/share opinions, etc.  So check back here at 7:00 p.m. tomorrow to join in the discussion about how the candidates are doing.

Until then...
